Travelers Along The Way: A Robin Hood Remix

Reach for this book when your teen is questioning how their identity and faith fit into the 'hero's journey' stories they love. This historical adventure reimagines the Robin Hood legend through the eyes of Rahma and Zeena, two Muslim sisters navigating the dangers of the Third Crusade. It is a powerful tool for discussing how history is written and who gets to be the protagonist in classic tales. While it features the high-stakes action of a heist, the heart of the story lies in the sisters' loyalty to one another and their community. Parents will appreciate the nuanced exploration of religious identity and the way it empowers teens to see themselves as the masters of their own destiny. It is ideal for readers aged 12 and up who enjoy complex historical settings and themes of social justice.
